The trend is also called "plexiglass" hair because it's hand painted onto the hair using a piece of plexiglass.

It makes the hair look super dimensional, almost like an oil slick.

Chiala Marvici, a Redken colorist developed the technique.

It actually came to her in a dream. “I have a painting in my apartment that a friend did for me a while ago that has a lot of colors on it, and I fell asleep one night and dreamt of all these layers of paint living together on one surface,” she told Marie Claire. “When I woke up, I thought about how beautiful that would be on the hair and how I would translate that vision onto the hair.”
She paints geometric patterns in different colors onto the class and then lays the hair down on top of it.

And it gives the hair such a unique look.
